founded 2009
 It brings together a multidisciplinary network of over twenty scientists
from BOKU
 The CDR engages in national and international networks such as the
AGRINATURA (The European Alliance on Agricultural Knowledge for
Development) and the Commission for Development Studies (KEF)
 The CDR collaborates with a wide range of partners in Africa, Asia
and Latin America
 It conducts applied development research and training in areas
related to sustainable natural resource management.
 The CDR works towards poverty reduction, food security, and wellbeing for the most vulnerable population

ICA - European Association of Life
Science Universities
 Founded as “International Conference of Agricultural
Universities” (initiated by Wageningen Univ.)
 aims to develop concerted actions in the field of
higher education and research in agricultural and
related sciences
 > 60 life science universities from the geographic
region of Europe
 cooperation in curriculum development
www.ica-europe.info
29
ICA Regional Network for Central and
South Eastern Europe (“ICA-CASEE”)
 Is a network of Central and South Eastern European
Higher Education Institutions relating to the Life
Science disciplines (agriculture, food, biotechnology,
natural resources, rural development and the
environment)
 Was founded by the University of Natural Resources
and Life Sciences, Vienna, (BOKU) in 2010
 Is still open for further Life Sciences Univ. members
 The objectives of network are:
 to support the development and implementation of the
EU Strategy for the Danube Region (EUSDR)
 to strengthen research, education and University
Development in this region
 to develop joint research, educational and other projects

 To develop a quality network of European universities in the fields of
Natural Resources Management, Agricultural and Forestry
Sciences, Environmental Sciences, Life Sciences, Veterinary
Sciences, Food Sciences
 7 Member Universities:
 Univ. Copenhagen; Swed. Univ. Agr. Sci.; Czech Univ. Life Sci.; Univ.
Hohenheim; Warsaw Univ. Life Sci.; Wageningen Univ. and Res. Ctr.; BOKU
Vienna
 This network should strengthen each partner university's position
and capability through
 sharing expertise and costs in the development and delivery of their degree
programs, and
 explore cooperation with other consortia in higher education.
 “Fund for Incentives” for support of activities
 budget from membership fees

Global Challenges University Alliance
 Initiated by Swedish University of Agric. Sciences (SLU) in 2012
 Is planned to involve 25 of the world’s top "bio‐economy" universities at all continents (4-5 selected leading univ. per continent)
 Focus: Agricultural research and educations issues in relation to the
current Global Challenges
 Build‐up will take place through
 thematic Global Challenges University Workshops, each with
4‐10 participating universities, e.g.
 Aquaculture - Providing Food for the Future (10/2014)
 The Future of Forests - To Manage Forests for People (6/2014)
 corresponding thematic Global Challenges Summer Schools
for MSc/PhD students. Both research and education
components will train young “bioeconomy” leaders of the
future:
 Biofuels and Biorefineries (2013)
 The Future of Food – safety, quality and security (2014)
